It's the monthly jobs numbers today and they're not going to be pretty and will be possibly the tip of the iceberg as we head into May.

Good morning. Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell didn't say anything too new on Friday at the central bank's annual retreat in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. He reiterated that the central bank has a 2 percent inflation target. And that they may need to raise interest rates further to hit that target. While the speech wasn't overly hawkish, it wasn't dovish either. That helped stocks regain some of Thursday's big drop. But it may not be enough to resume a market uptrend. Traders will likely continue to have some good downside opportunities in the coming weeks, and investors can start looking for stocks to buy after a slightly further decline in stocks.
